After entering the bird tribe, I want to farm
Chapter 145 Wool
Every time Bai Wu thinks that the weather is extremely cold, it can get a little colder.
They were all frozen outside, the trees were hung from the trees, the eaves had icicles, and even the snow in the field was frozen into icicles, which were full of grains when stepped on.
In such weather, they don't like to go out at all.
If it wasn't for having to go down to feed the livestock and the two little dolphins, Bai Wu didn't even want to leave the bed.
Even if he barely travels, Bai Wu will wear thick equipment every time.
Hats, scarves, hand socks, and thick animal skin down jackets, there are many of them.
On this day, they went to feed the livestock again.
When he arrived at the place, Bai Wu took out the food from the back basket and wanted to feed the sheep first, but he didn't expect to glance over. In the simple barn, the sheep were huddled together, shivering for warmth, with snot still hanging from their noses.
"No way, have you caught a cold again?" Seeing the appearance of the sheep, Bai Wu was startled and immediately felt a headache.
Nan Yao put his hands on his shoulders and looked over his head, "Let me see."
"You should be right, I can see their snot." Bai Wu opened the fence of the sheep shed, "Come in and have a look."
Sheep like to be clean and have less sheep manure. They don't need to clean the barn every day, and generally they don't come in every time.
Now when he suddenly came in, Bai Wu smelled an unpleasant smell of sheep, probably the smell of feces and body odor mixed together and fermented.
He tilted his head and coughed twice.
The flock became agitated, huddled together and slowly moved forward a few steps.
Bai Wu grabbed a sheep by its neck, clamped its body between its legs, and inspected it carefully.
The sheep bleated twice and struggled feebly.
Bai Wu could clearly see the snot hanging under its nose. Apart from the snot, there was also secretions from the eyes, which seemed to be in a bad state.
He checked two or three sheep in a row, and it was the same situation.
Bai Wu's heart sank, "It's too cold, and the heat preservation facilities here are not enough, so I might not be able to sustain it."
Nan Yao was also checking the condition of the sheep, and said in a deep voice, "Slaughter it first, and catch the lamb next year."
"That's the only way. Let's go and see how the pigs are doing."
Pigs do not have thick hair to keep them warm, and the situation is worse than that of sheep, huddling feebly in a corner.
Bai Wu and Nan Yao walked in, but they still didn't move.
After checking the situation of the pigs, the two went to see the cows.
They pay more attention to the cattle, the cowsheds are more carefully built, and thick hay is placed inside to keep the cattle warm and feed.
They went into the cowshed to check on the cattle.
The two cows snuggled together to keep warm, and they didn't catch a cold.
The condition of the cow is fine, and Bai Wu is relieved.
Their family raises cattle for plowing and pulling things. Cattle are a major labor force. Even if they are sick, they cannot be killed casually.
After checking, Nan Yao said, "Take the cow back first, and drive the pigs and sheep later."
"Where will the cow be brought back?"
"We raise them behind the kitchen. We build a shed and use the smoke to keep them warm. If it doesn't work, we will burn some coal for them."
Their family has enough coal, even if there are two more cows, they are not afraid of running out of coal.
Bai Wu sighed, "This is the only way to go now."
The two fed the two cows with hay, tied the nose rings of the cows with a rope, and led the cows out.
The cows were pulled to the door, and the cold wind blew outside, and the two cows shrank desperately into the cowshed.
If it weren't for the ropes tied to their nose rings, they would have escaped into the cowshed.
After half a year of growth, the two cows have grown enormously, standing taller than Bai Wu.
Bai Wu dragged the two cows, "You'll be warm when you get back."
"Moo!"
"Stop barking, it's not far from home, and we'll be there in a while."
"Moo!"
The cow that Bai Wu was pulling was lowing, as if bargaining with him.
The cow Nanyao was holding didn't dare to bark, and he was reluctant when he took a step. He also looked at his partner frequently, as if expecting his partner to resist successfully.
There was grievance in the eyes of the two bulls.
Bai Wu looked at their rather spiritual expressions, and said helplessly, "As for it? I'm doing it for your own good."
"Moo."
After a stalemate, Bai Wu let go of the rope softly, "Forget it, maybe it's too cold and they don't want to go out. When we go back and get two animal skins and put them on, it shouldn't be too cold."
"It's quite troublesome to feed them every day, whether you can take it back or take it back." Nan Yao took the rope that Bai Wu let go, "It's not much colder in the cowshed than outside, so they won't be unbearable, let's go .”
Nan Yao made a move, but the two cows didn't dare to struggle, so they could only reluctantly follow them out.
As soon as they came out of the cowshed, the cold wind outside was blowing in their faces, and both the people and the cows couldn't help speeding up their pace.
Xingwang Valley is not very far from the mountain where they live, and after walking for a while, they arrived home.
Chuan and the others were very surprised when they saw that the cattle had been brought back.
Chuan opened the door and looked at them, "Why did you bring the cow back?"
Bai Wu rubbed his hands, sniffed and said, "It's too cold down here, the pigs and sheep have caught a cold, we want to kill them in advance. Bring the cows back now so that we don't have to go down to feed them in the future, troublesome."
"Where is this cow going to be raised?"
Nan Yao answered, "They are raised behind the kitchen. I will build a small shed. The smoke from cooking can keep them warm. There are some materials left over."
Mo stood up, "I'll build it with you, the materials are all behind the house."
To build a cowshed, they can borrow the outer wall of the kitchen and erect two pillars.
Behind the house are the materials left over from their construction, such as thatch and tiles.
It doesn't take much material to build a small cowshed.
Bai Wu tied the cow to the window lattice of the utility room, "Then you build a cowshed at home, and I'll go down and drive the pigs and sheep up."
Kishi said: "I'll go with you, I haven't gone out for several days."
"Okay, brother, you wear my down jacket."
"What about you?"
Nan Yao's voice came from behind the house, "He wears mine."
Nan Yao was working at home. If it was cold, he could go back to the house to keep warm at any time. It was windy outside, and if it was cold, there was nowhere to hide.
Bai Wu thinks about this place, and does not compete with Nanyao.
The two brothers wrapped themselves in thick down jackets, packed their hats, scarves, and hand socks, and went down with a long bamboo pole to drive livestock.
The pigs and sheep raised by them are not so spiritual, and they don't know how to resist. It is not difficult for them to catch up.
After tossing for half the morning, they finally drove back the pigs and sheep in the afternoon.
Chuan boiled two large pots of boiling water at home.
As soon as the pigs and sheep came back, Nanyao and Mo both took a break from the construction of the cowshed and came over to kill the pigs and sheep together.
They were seasoned old hunters with enough metal knives at home.
Before the sun went down, they slaughtered all the pigs and sheep.
The pig's wool was all scraped off, and they put the internal organs and heads in a large wooden basin, and then frozen the cavity in the snow outside.
The blood also froze in the snow outside, and they took it back to stew when they wanted to eat it.
In this kind of weather where dripping water turns into ice, no matter what is frozen, it can be turned into chilled ingredients, so there is no need to worry about it being broken.
Before it was dark, Nan Yao and Mo went to build a cowshed behind the house, Chuan Hean washed the internal organs with hot water, and Bai Wu set up a few large pots, and began to marinate the pig's head and sheep's head, and then the internal organs.
The billowing heat steamed up, warming up the small mountain.
The cow tied to the side stopped struggling and chewed the hay in its mouth comfortably.
At night, they lit torches and continued to work.
The pig's head and sheep's head in several pots had already been stewed, Bai Wu took them out, put them on the chopping board, then removed the meat on top, sorted and frozen.
After the stewed meat broth is divided, it is also frozen outside. When cooking, these broths are excellent seasonings.
The family was busy until late at night before they built the cowshed and drove the cattle in.
They prepared the thirteen pigs and sheep neatly. The meat and internal organs were all frozen outside. In addition to the duck meat and animal meat that had been frozen before, they would no longer have to get meat by hand in the next month.
It was finally done, and after the family had supper, Bai Wu and Nan Yao held hands and bid farewell to the family, "Yafu, Father, we won't be coming down tomorrow, please feed the porpoise."
Chuan smiled and nodded, "Then you take some meat and put it in the pot to stew, you can eat it if you want."
"Alright, I'll bring two more lotus roots, some bacon and fish balls, and let's eat hot pot tomorrow."
Bai Wu said that he was very tired, and when he got up, he couldn't help but drag Nan Yao to take a bath.
They have worked all day today and killed pigs and sheep. They smell all over their bodies, so they can't do without a bath.
There is nothing to do in winter.
Bai Wu and Nan Yao didn't just rest for a day, they rested at home for several days.
The main reason is that the quilt is too warm, and their kang is warm, and the kang is big enough for a young couple who are in a passionate relationship to do something.
By the time Bai Wu and the others went down again, it was already five days later.
Bai Wu's whole body was rosy and rosy, and he looked very moisturized, and Kishi glanced at him several times.
Bai Wu touched his face, "Is there something wrong?"
"What have you put on these days? Why is your skin so good?"
Bai Wu's face turned hot, and she pretended to be nonchalant, "I didn't wipe anything. Maybe because I stayed indoors all day without the wind blowing, my skin got better."
"Is that still the case?"
"Of course I will. What are you holding in your hands? Why is it a little strange? I haven't seen it before."
Kishi's attention was quickly turned away, and he held up the thread in his hand to show Bai Wu, "You mean this?"
The thread in his hand was off-white and looked rough, as if it wasn't cotton thread.
Bai Wu took it over, felt it for a while, and felt that these threads were a bit thorny and relatively hard, at least harder than cotton thread, "Yes, what is this?"
"Wool thread."
The expression on Bai Wu's face was a bit surprised.
He didn't expect his family to get wool thread, "Is it thread made of wool?"
"That's right. After killing the sheep a few days ago, the wool was left outside. Yafu said that he could fix these threads and use them to weave a few pairs of socks. Our socks don't seem to be warm enough. Using these wool threads should be better."
"Then how do you wash this kind of wool?"
Bai Wu couldn't help pinching the thread in his hand as he said that, these threads are indeed more prickly than cotton thread, and not as soft as cotton thread, but overall, they are already softer.
He put the threads under his nose and smelled them. These threads had a faint smell of soap and the smell of soap, but there was no smell of mutton at all.
"Do you soap the threads?"
Kishi shook his head, "First boil it in gray water several times, and then wash it with soap."
Chuan laughed, "Is there something wrong?"
"No." Bai Wu said, "I'm just a little surprised, you are so amazing, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you have knitted wool socks."
Chuan Dao: "We have made things with animal hair before, but it is not as soft as wool, and the animal hair is not so long."
Bai Wu looked at the thread in his hand, "That's pretty good, we can also try knitting sweaters with wool."
They were all frozen outside, the trees were hung from the trees, the eaves had icicles, and even the snow in the field was frozen into icicles, which were full of grains when stepped on.
In such weather, they don't like to go out at all.
If it wasn't for having to go down to feed the livestock and the two little dolphins, Bai Wu didn't even want to leave the bed.
Even if he barely travels, Bai Wu will wear thick equipment every time.
Hats, scarves, hand socks, and thick animal skin down jackets, there are many of them.
